Description Steffen Froemer 2016-09-06 07:00:46 UTC

Description of problem:
After applying errata RHBA-2016:1645, the behaviour of applying custom_values with spaces to a system with spacecmd, will not work as expected. Only the first part of the value will be attached to the system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacecmd-2.3.0-5.el6sat

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. #: spacecmd custominfo_createkey SAMPLE_VALUE "sample description"
2. #: spacecmd system_updatecustomvalue SAMPLE_VALUE "one two three" system.example.com


Actual results:
#: spacecmd system_listcustomvalues system.example.com
INFO: Connected to https://localhost/rpc/api as admin
SAMPLE_VALUE = one

Expected results:
#: spacecmd system_listcustomvalues system.example.com
INFO: Connected to https://localhost/rpc/api as admin
SAMPLE_VALUE = one two three

Additional info:
This behavior was raised by BZ#1315060 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1315060)

Actually every call which uses quotes in order to pass multi-word parameters into spacecmd is broken, e.g. system_addnote.

Comment 5 Radovan Drazny 2017-11-20 09:14:23 UTC

Reproduced on spacecmd-2.5.0-14.el6sat using the reproducer from the initial report. The bug is valid only for the "spacecmd command" call directly from system shell. Running a command from spacecmd shell works as expected.

On spacecmd-2.5.0-16.el6sat:

$ spacecmd system_updatecustomvalue SAMPLE_VALUE "four        five      six   seven eight"  clien7.testing.mylocal

$ spacecmd system_listcustomvalues clien7.testing.mylocal 
INFO: Connected to https://satellite.server.com/rpc/api as admin
SAMPLE_VALUE = four     five      six   seven eight

Beside spaces, I have tested inserting tabs (Ctrl+V Ctrl+I) and newlines (Ctrl-V Ctrl+J). All were correctly inserted into custom value field.

VERIFIED
